India, July 30 -- Ingredients like garlic, ginger and lemon are usually found in every Indians' kitchen. By adding this concoction to your daily routine, one can glean several health benefits from it. Here are some ways ginger, garlic and lemon water can help: "Garlic, ginger, and lemon has immune-boosting properties. Garlic has antimicrobial properties, while ginger's anti-inflammatory effects and lemon's vitamin C content enhance your body's defence mechanisms," says dietitian Gulnaaz Shaikh. Regularly drinking garlic, ginger, and lemon water can enhance your digestive health. For centuries, ginger has been utilised to relieve nausea, with garlic supporting a healthy gut microbiome. Lemon's acidity can stimulate production of digestive juices. When combined, these ingredients can aid in weight loss. "Ginger can help reduce feelings of hunger and promote a sense of fullness, while lemon's acidity can enhance fat oxidation. Garlic is also linked to metabolic improvement, making this drink a potential ally in weight management," Gulnaaz says. Staying hydrated is vital and adding garlic, ginger, and lemon to your water will encourage you to consume more fluids throughout the day, making hydration an enjoyable experience. The antioxidants present in garlic, ginger and lemon water can combat oxidative stress, a process known to accelerate ageing and exacerbate skin issues. Lemon's vitamin C is particularly beneficial for collagen production, which maintains skin elasticity. Preliminary studies published in the journal Chinese Medicine suggest that garlic may help regulate blood sugar levels, which can be beneficial for individuals managing diabetes or prediabetes. Ginger also has the potential to inhibit certain enzymes that break down carbohydrates, potentially leading to more stable blood sugar levels. Lemon water is widely recognised for its detoxifying properties and stimulating liver function. Garlic contains sulfur compounds that aid in detoxifying the body. This water has a powerful combination of ingredients that can help flush out toxins. Creating this refreshing detox drink is simple. All you need to do is crush garlic cloves, peel and slice ginger, and add juice of one lemon to some boiling water. "You can also add honey for sweetness, if desired, but be sure to use it in moderation to maintain its health benefits", shares dietitian Gulnaaz. For more such stories, follow healthshots.come...
